QUOTE(Hrw @ Apr 27 2007, 09:35 AM) I wonder when pdaXrom team will ask OpenEmbedded developers for help or atleast will check what we ship and how. Spectrum cards working out of box is just a matter of firmware package and script which upload it after card insert. Battery working is a matter of kernel - pdaX still use 2.6.16 which we dropped weeks ago as 2.6.20 works OK for us. Touchscreen configuration for 2.6 on Zaurus is easy too - we ship working one. When will pdaX ship something what works? (I know that Ångström images have bugs but not so lowlevel ones)  Thanks Late |

Nope, I wanted a c700 for a long time and by the time I finally got my wifes approval, the c3100 was out :-) But c1000 is my one and only device Late PS. I would love to have another... because I'm going to start using mine for work purposes and it is a little hard to bug test and have a production unit, maybe in the near future. |

You can do work on the Zaurus?  I thought you could only play and fiddle.

You can do work on the Zaurus? I thought you could only play and fiddle.Of course you can! I carry my Z around for work and that's why I am reluctant to install something unstable on it because I rely on my Z for all my work. I need every feature that my Z has working all the time and it needs to be rock stable 100% of the time. My Z current does this so I see no real reason to change that except the lure of more speed but I do not want to sacrifice everything that is stable and working for the speed... |

I haven't heard from Sashz in forever, and just from Laze a while ago... |

I talk to Laze and Sashz just about EVERYDAY... though they arent active all ideas I have bounces off them first... so there effort may not be Direct... like commiting data to the SVN but they do there part... sashz is actually working on EABI...
So either read the above or just skip it.. and the answer to you question is... Yes Late |

now, since they have a SL-C860, it should be very easy to ask them "hey men, look at my ts.conf, my touchscreen, my drivers.. you had a fully working input, and now it sucks: did you notice anything about it?"

I'm still getting the apm error (on my c760):
sharpsl-pm sharpsl-pm: Error: AC check failed. sharpsl-pm sharpsl-pm: Charging Error! .. which prevents the battery from charging, and makes the zaurus unable to resume from sleep. Running apm reports the AC online, with battery status critical (5%). Any ideas? |
